'I don't think I can eat much more.' You whine when your plates are being taken from the table. It was incredible food but it filled like crazy. 

'No room for dessert?' Tom asks and he smirks when he sees you in doubt. 'That depends.. Do they have something that is made of chocolate, preferably filled with something made of chocolate and it has to at least be covered in something made of chocolate.' You say what makes him laugh. 'I'm sure they have something just like that, darling. Let me ask for the menu, yes?'  

After another glorious twenty minutes of you enjoying a dessert with his eyes following your every move, you get back to your hotel where to your surprise a few changes are. 

The bed has towels in the shape of swans while rose petals are in the shape of a heart around them. There are candles burning everywhere and even on the floor are rose petals. You let out a gasp and walk around the room, amazed by what is happening now. 

'How.. When did this happen?' You ask but when you turn around, Tom is on one knee with a small velvet box in his hands. 'Wha-?' You softly wonder and fold your hands in front of your lips. Is this really happening? So many emotions are going through you and you don't know how to process the scene before you. 

'{y/n}.' He starts, beckoning you over towards him. With trembling legs you take a few steps closer and watch how he takes your hand in his. 'Oh, darling. No need to be nervous. Leave that to me.' He chuckles. Even now he is making jokes while all you want to do is answer him already. 

'I never thought that I would fall in love with a fan. When I first read your letter, I wanted to see the one who wrote it because I obviously made a huge impression on you and I wanted to give you a chance to meet the person who indirectly helped you cope with life. Because I never got that chance when I was younger.' He frowns a little and hopes to see any kind of reaction from you but all you can do is wipe some tears from your cheeks. This wasn't at all what you expected this weekend. 

'But after our short meet&greet moment in London, I found myself standing in front of your hotel door. I told myself that it was crazy to do that since you're a fan and it would never work out. Partially because of my job. But I was so intrigued by you, I couldn't stay away and I just had to get to know you.' He softly squeezes your hand while a small smile is tugging at his lips. 'So I knocked.' 

'And now here we are, my beautiful love. I want to spend the rest of my life with you. I love you, {y/n}! Will you please be my wife?' He opens the small box where a beautiful silver ring greets you with a subtle diamond on top and a few small ones next to it, creating a kind of rose shape. 

You let your tears roll down your cheeks while nodding excitedly. 'Yes, yes, yes!' You say, almost screaming while pulling him up to kiss him. 'Thousand times yes!' You say again, letting Tom slide the ring down your finger. You're engaged. You're truly engaged and with the man you always thought was far out of your reach! Too old even but look where you are! 

With amazement you look down at the ring on your finger. Subtle but eye-catching, exactly Tom's taste and now yours too. Everything he does for you, everything he gives to you is amazing. You would have said yes if he proposed with an onion ring. It's the feeling and choices that count. But, it would be one hell of an onion ring.

'I still can't really believe it!' You say while taking a glass of champagne from Tom. The staff of the hotel has given you this bottle while you were at the restaurant. How didn't you see this all coming? A lot of people would have seen signs of this sort of thing but you were completely oblivious. Heck, you even told Taylor you two weren't thinking about marriage because you just got Oliver! How long has he been planning this?

'You better start believing, darling.' He purrs while pressing a kiss in your neck, just below your ear. 'I've got to ask. How long have you been planning?' He chuckles and moves away from you to take a sip from his champagne. 

'You were still pregnant when I bought the ring. I wanted to do this for so long but I was scared you'd say no. And after that, I never had the right moment. At least, I felt like I didn't have the right moment. But once I heard the premiere was going to be until late in the night, I saw my chance with an entire weekend.' He tells you and it surprises you to be honest. Oliver is three months and if he was thinking about proposing to you when you were still pregnant, it could have been any time. He has been sitting on that ring for quite some time. 

'But now you've said yes, I don't have anything to be scared about. Unless you get cold feet and run away at the wedding.' You laugh and cup his cheek in your hand. 'I would never.' 


{A/N} I'm terribly sorry! It was a busy time. But I have finally finished this chapter! I am going to end this story soon and I was wondering if you would be interested in a part two. Let me know in the comments! I will gladly write it but I need to end this for story line purposes now. Part two will be with a small time skip and about married life. I will throw in a little Loki business (;. Just let me know what you think about that! 

Also, I am in the middle of writing a Bucky story! I will publish that story soon. I don't know if you are interested in that as well but be sure to check it out once it's online! 

Have a wonderful day!
